Below you will see four buttons, one is for a fallacy study guide, one is a worksheet of fallacies, one is a study guide for the overall final exam and the last one is the fallacy worksheet answers. Open the fallacy study guide, do the worksheet (list of sentences that are all fallacies - you need to figure out which fallacy they are). Then one week before the final I will post the answers here below. Keep in mind I will take sentences from that worksheet and put them on the final exam - all you have to do is NAME THE FALLACY.
